we are in the process of determining what would be the best technology to write our signage player . Although we are a C# house with some experience in Java, all the talk has been about Java and Mono. Also the platform we are going to build on would be a linux box.
The player has to be very intelligent and support scheduling, content change triggers by external applications (by web services), time synchronization of content, content show in different portions of the screen, video/live streamed feed etc.
We will also need to create a designer to allow the design team to create webgl content.
There is some OpenGl experience in the company so we could leverage this.
Would this be a good choice?

That would be an excellent choice IF and only IF you have a good grasp on Javascript or your timeline isn't too tight in case you don't dominate Javascript. If going on a linux box, chances are you're better off with a custom build of Firefox or Chromium running your app alone without the browser parts (menus, tabs, etc).
My team here is working with HTML5+Javascript+Canvas/WebGL on the client side almost exclusively now because it is very fast to develop and needs almost no setup.

I have an asp.net application which was initially designed for support only in IE(Internet Explorer). Now i want to convert that application which will support all the latest browser,
Basically it was developed Asp.net, CSS and Javascript(Specific for IE).Is there any easy way to convert because I have only 1 week time to Submit if i failed then i need to report whether it is possible or not?
Here's the quick answer - it will probably take you longer than a week :)
The best thing to do is view your website in different browsers and see what the problems are. You have been a bit vague in your question, but you could be looking at having to fix UI issues and possbily JavaScript problems.
Which version of IE are you supporting? You need to take this into account since developing for cross browser support means not only fixing problems for modern browsers, but making sure that older browsers are not broken.
This is a very open-ended question, and the best suggestion I have is the above. There is no way to convert an application to magically be cross-browser compatible. It's going to be a manual job unfortunately.
Most importantly, you need to to measure how bad things are in other browsers before you can get a plan together of what it will take to fix.

I am new to Software Development, could you please give me some input into which platform is mostly used by other Software Developers.
I am looking to develop software which has DB Connectivity with an attractive customisable UI.
Please recommend the what is currently used in the IT industry by other Successful Software Developers.
If you are really new to learning try to read few books on C#, WPF, MFC and play with it. Choose the one which is more fun to work with and that will drive you to learn a lot. If you are into Industry then mostly your project needs drive you towards a particular choice.
But as i mentioned if you want to be successful learn one which is fun to you.
There is no simply best development platform. If so every developer should be developing with that instead of using many different tools and platforms. Every platform has its pros and cons. Personally I would recommend you c#. Its easy to start with. Its development environment(visual studio) is very good for interface design(especially for windows forms development) and its very good to start learning object oriented approach, which is very important in software development. If you can clarify you needs more maybe I can recommend something else.
There are many web development tools if you want to develop a web application. Dreamviewer is more simpler than visual studio to start designing web applications.

This might be very newbie, I am experienced asp.net and c# developer with winforms experience as well.
I wonder what I need to learn to start making windows store app, what new technonologies, languages?
and 2nd question is:
How can I submit applications to the new windows store if its possible now?
thanks
Second question first. Right now, you cannot submit applications to the Windows Store. The OS is still in beta (consumer preview) and the store is not open to everyone.
There are many ways to program on Windows 8. You can use JavaScript/HTML5 or you can use C#/XAML or C++/XAML. Given your background, you should look into C# as a language with XAML as a UI framework. This is very similar to Silverlight or WPF that you may have run across.
One good place to start is Charles Petzold's upcoming book. It's on sale right now. Another place is on http://dev.windows.com. That will point you at tutorials, reference documentation, and samples.

I am developing winform app that runs in two differen pc's
I want to create a replica and get the changes over the internet
How can i do that?
& how can I create replica and sync it using C#?
any ideas will be appreciated
I assume that you are talking about replicating changes in one ms-access "database" such that two instances stay in sync, As such, you'd be better off abandoning ms-access and upscaling to a single centralised database.
this sounds like a bad idea all around.
The common patterns apply;
use GUID id's,
send offline datasets,
cross fingers and look for a job that allows you to use other free tools, suited for the job http://www.microsoft.com/sqlserver/en/us/editions/express.aspx
Avoid conflict resolution (don't edit the same entities on both ends)
Edit
PS. after visiting hamsaweb.net; if you need this to be web deployable on a shared host:

I have create a web site and I need to read data which is created by rfid reader.
this device has some dll which can be use in windows application.
I want to know that is there any way to use those dll in my site in order that I read data from RFID reader? if not is there any way to use that device in web site?
Reading dll's on a clients machine is seen as big security risk and there is not really allowed. It is possible to use ActiveX controls (basically dll's compiled into cab files) which the user can then enable and download, this then will allow you to talk to the ActiveX control which talks to the dll's, which talks to the RFID.
I would rather suggest you use something like Silverlight with out of browser mode, which you can run on the client machine with elevated privilages, then you can talk to com object.
A much better way to go.
ASP.NET application is Server side application with specific security restrictions applied.
So basically, as the question is very generic so my answer too: you can do it, it's enough to be sure that your architecture fits yuor ASP.NET security/permission requirements.
Cause I immagine DLL is kind of COM component where you push signals and read alphanumeric characters specifying your RFID (passive or active) identifier.
